A hands-on look at Microsoft’s new Surface computing platform
by Worthersee at 2:14 pm EDT, Oct 1, 2007

I learned a few new things about the Surface computer.

It utilizes Microsoft's XNA Development framework. Which is an extension of the .NET framework to allow easy development of Xbox and Windows games. I've used XNA to make a clone of Oasis and I can personally vouch that is makes developing cool graphics very easy.

It has a menu program that restaurants might use to integrate their dinning menu directly into the table. Would be a cool novelty.

The price is expected to be between $5k and $10k. Of course this would go down over time making it pretty affordable.
